Help Me simplify: C*(A+B) + ~A*B












2












$begingroup$


I know the answer is AC + ~AB, but how?



I have tried:



B*(~A+C) + A*C and stop.



Also, I have tried:



AC + BC + ~AB and have stopped.



There seems nowhere to go in either case.

I will not give you the full solution, but the required non-trivial sidestep. You have got this far:



C(A + B) + A'B = AC + BC + A'B =


Now here is the sidestep. We know that (A+A') is 1, so we can do:



 = AC + (A + A')BC + A'B


From here you will need to expand it and use the "OR absorption law" twice.

    @Eugene Sh. Expanding the brackets was an obvious step but your "sidestep" was one that I had not considered. Very useful and I will bear this in mind for future tasks. A Karnaugh Map would also have provided a easy solution to the problem.

Kiel pontaj tankoj eblas konsideri ĉiujn memmovigaj rimedoj ebligantaj superi obstaklojn ĝis larĝeco 24 metroj rekte en spaco de bataloperacoj.

Tantalo (mitologio)

Ĉi tiu artikolo temas pri mitologio. Por aliaj signifoj vidu la paĝon Tantalo (apartigilo) . Tantalo , laŭ Gioacchino Assereto. Laŭ la helena mitologio, Tantalo (el la greka Τάνταλος , ŝancelanta aŭ tre malfeliĉa ) estis filo de Zeŭso kaj la oceanidino Pluto, laŭ la plej divastigata versio. Li estis reĝo de Frigio [1] aŭ de la monto Sipilo, en Lidio (Malgrandazio) [2] kaj post sia morto li suferis eternan torturadon ĉe la Tartaro, la plej profunda parto de Hadeso, rezervita por la plej perversaj homoj. Tamen, kelkaj rakontoj asertas ke li estis reĝo de Argo aŭ de Korinto [3] , aŭ ke li migris norden el la monto Sipilo por akiri la tronon de Paflagonio, el kie Ilo forpelis lin pro tio, ke Tantalo forkaptis kaj seksperfortis lian fraton Ganimedon [4] , kaj tiel ofendis la diojn. Verŝajne li ankaŭ regis urbon en okcidenta Anatolio, kiun oni nomis Tantalis [5] pro li, aŭ Sipilo , pro la monto sur kies flanko ankoraŭ staras ĝiaj ruinaĵoj [6] . Laŭ la geografiisto Strabo,...
